If the game is stored on the device's internal storage, the save file must be in the same directory as the ROM. I did some extensive testing, and have made some discoveries.įirst, ensure that the ROM name and save names match (excluding their file extensions). I’ve also just noticed that even though the game is stored on the device’s internal storage the save file is in storage/emulated/0/MyBoy/save/ and the game is in storage/emulated/0/Download/Ĭomments originally posted under the question converted into a wiki answer. (It is the same save file that I was used before it stopped working) Is there anything else I could do? – I tried putting them in the same directory (the game is stored on the device’s internal storage) and it still won’t work.
The ROM is inside a zip folder which is inside Downloads (I’ve set the My Boy app to find games there), and the save file is inside a folder called "saves" which is inside the "MyBoy" folder.
I searched a bit through my storage and found the save files for the game, but the game simply doesn’t recognize them for some reason. Up until now it was working fine, but when I opened the emulator today and went into Pokemon Emerald, instead of having three options pop up on the screen which are "Continue", "New Game" and "Options" I only had the last two, without the "Continue" option. I was saving a "quick" save in the emulator screen and also inside the game itself. I’ve been playing Pokemon Emerald for a couple of days using ‘ My Boy! Free – GBA Emulator‘ (found on the Google Play store).
